It was a very clean and beautiful accommodation. The garden has a mango tree and we even saw some monkeys. A few steps away is a local vegetable and fruit market, we enjoyed. Breakfast and dinner was amazing! It was cooked by the hosts. They even helped us to buy something we lost on our journey and what is very hard to get in this area of Sri Lanka. Additionally we got great sight seeing insides. This guest house was.perfect for us.

The accomodation is perfect for visiting the archeological sights in Polonnaruwa, as it is very close to the museum and the park. It is beautifully situated close to rice fields and the rooms are very nice, clean and bright. The famliy ist very helpful and friendly - thanks again a lot! The breakfast was superb, including a lot of Sir Lankan food and fresh fruits and the family did even buy some special exotic fruits that i asked for. So if you spend some days in Polonnaruwa i can definitely recommend to stay at Man Guest.

Room is very big, with comfortable beds. Very quiet location. Hot water works very well, there is even a toothpaste. WiFi works very well. We had no mosquitoes. To the historical part you can cycle by bicycle , there is a path, you don’t have to cycle on the highway. The juices are very tasty.

I got to spend a day at green garden homestay with very good care. I am very happy about it. The food and room facilities were very good. I got to experience a very free environment specially with a canal. Nilu worked very closely with us. I am thankful for that. The jeep safari was also very good. I also liked the boat safari very much. The breakfast and dinner were delicious. A very good, loving and strong woman. I recommend everyone to come and enjoy your free time.

Nilusha and Ruwan were great hosts. We arrived late at night at the trainstation and they picked us up. They were very kind and helpful throughout our stay and arranged for bikes to rent. Nilusha cooks amazing dinner, so far the best meals we had! They also serve a very good sri lankan breakfast. Thank you very much, we really enjoyed our stay in Polonnaruwa.

Exceptional homestay which was private & quiet! Our family of 7 stayed 2 nights. Rooms were spacious, clean & beds comfy. We had meals that were great. Binara is kind & caring, organising medical help for one member. Cannot reccomend his homestay enough. Truly 5 star !! Binara organised boat trip to island on lake were we saw elephants

Nice, simple and very clean homestay, close to the ancient city. Possibility to rent a bike. I stayed only one night. Ravi the owner is very kind, humble and helpful, he even showed me around the lake with bicycles. And he always finds the solution;-)

Amazing hospitality, clean and relatively modern rooms, good food and great location for visiting Polonuwara archeological sites. Bicycles were available for a small fee and we went on a great elephant safari for half a day and saw lots of elephants, organised by the hosts👍 loved this place so can't praise enough. Been travelling Sri Lanka for over 4 weeks and this is definitely one of the better home stays you will find. Enjoy👍

Good facilities relative to price. Comfy bed, good sized bedroom. Good aircon. Breakfast/dinner was lovely, reasonably priced. Great hosts, who went out of their way to accommodate us. Including organising a tuktuk from bus stop to property, and bicycles for us to do the ancient city. Also helped us find a bus to leave!

The host family were super friendly, making the nice atmosphere in their homestay. The bathroom was very clean and pleasant, and the food that they serve for breakfast and dinner is just amazing. I was served like someone special. They are ready to help you with everything, you can rent a bike to go to the ancient city. This homestay is a little out of a town in a nice , quiet area. I enjoyed my stay there a lot and recommend this place.
